And from the looks of social media, Sinister filmmaker Scott Derrickson has been tapped to direct the upcoming Doctor Strange movie, based on Marvel Comics' resident Sorcerer Supreme.

Marvel hasn't made an official announcement yet, but Derrickson confirmed his involvement Tuesday by tweeting a picture of himself, a Doctor Strange comic and the message "My next movie will be STRANGE."

Marvel Studios president Kevin Feige has long talked about doing a movie starring Stephen Strange, the eccentric magical superhero created by Stan Lee and Steve Ditko in 1963 who wields the Eye of Agamotto and protects Earth from various mystical threats. The film will most likely be a part of "Phase 3" of the Marvel Cinematic Universe following next year's Avengers: Age of Ultron.

Derrickson has directed a number of sci-fi and horror films, including The Exorcism of Emily Rose (2005), The Day the Earth Stood Still (2008), Sinister (2012) and the upcoming Deliver Us from Evil, in theaters July 2.

While Doctor Strange appears to have found a filmmaker, Ant-Man is still left hanging. Starring Paul Rudd and Michael Douglas, the movie with the shrinking hero is slated to kick off Marvel's Phase 3 on July 17, 2015, but its director, Edgar Wright, left the project last week.
